Here's the info:
Just to let you guys know - A few of the Dirt Dawgs are going to be racing at Elburn Days this coming Sunday - Its at Lions Park in Elburn. Hobbytown St. Charles is hosting it and all benefits go to the Lions Club. Maybe we can do a club vs. club race out there between Chitown and Dirt Dawgs and raise a little money for the Lions Club. Like to see anyone who can make it out there! Dale

What a great idea to have a race setup at a festival like that !! The charity aspect makes it very appealing , as well. I will have to start pitching the idea to the Naperville Jaycees and Exchange Club so we can have a track at RibFest or Last Fling by next year. HobbyTown Fox Valley should be (might be?) able to get involved there, too! That will be a race that gets some nice exposure with all the general public attending a fest. There's bound to be a lot of spectators watching the racing. Make sure you guys wear clean t-shirts! Don't want this sport to get a bad rep, now! Wish we could attend, but why does everything RC happen on Sunday, the day of rest, oops.....I meant day of worship?
Somebody take pictures or video.

This info came from fellow Dirt Dawg club member Dale. I guess this event was decieded upon late last week. I believe the races start at 11:00am and registration starts at 10:00am. Hobbytown St. Charles store should have all the exact info, they are hosting. Hobbytown St. Charles 630-587-1256 I know several of us Dirt Dawg's will be their.  Brian R.

I believe they will race Mt/ outlaw/ stadium and 1/8th scale and also electric. This is what they did the past two years when the Dirt Dawgs where more involved. This year it is strictly a hobbytown event and we are just racing to help the Lions club out.
There is always big crowds, plus there is a HUGE classic car show there, usually a couple hundred cars.

Its off of 47, about 2 blocks north of Keslinger. The enterance is ont he west side of 47 (across from the john deere store). The track is always set up in the back by the parking lot on the northwest end of the park.

Yeah we went, where where you guys?
 Dale, Brian, Tim B, Tim C, and my brother and I were there just to name a few. It was a good time, just took a long time even though we only ran one heat and the mains, we didnt get done until 4:30. Thanks to Dale for building the track...it was better then what I was expecting to see there.
